Information About FC4A-R161
The FC4A-R161 is part of the IDEC FC4A MicroSmart series of PLC expansion modules and is designed for use with compatible MicroSmart CPU modules. It provides 16 relay outputs configured as normally open contacts with two common lines for connection to external loads. The relay contacts support AC and DC switching applications, with a rated load of 240 V AC/2 A or 30 V DC/2 A under the specified conditions. The module uses an expansion connection to interface with the PLC system and includes LED indicators for monitoring the output status.
Key Features:
- 16 Relay Outputs: Provides 16 normally open relay contacts for expanding PLC output capacity.
- Two Common Lines: Outputs are arranged across two common lines for flexible wiring.
- 2 A Per Point: Supports a maximum load current of 2 A per individual output point.
- 8 A Per Common: Each common line supports a maximum load current of 8 A.
- AC/DC Switching: Rated for 240 V AC/2 A and 30 V DC/2 A under specified load conditions.
- Long Electrical Life: Relay contacts are rated for a minimum of 100,000 operations at rated load.
- LED Indicators: Provides visual indication of corresponding output activation.
- Expansion Connection: Connects to compatible MicroSmart CPU and I/O expansion modules.
The FC4A-R161 delivers the reliability and precision required for PLC output expansion, relay-based switching, and industrial automation control.
